TC02C First Run
 

Yesterday was the first time out with the car other than up the garden to make sure everything was ok.

I have to say the car was so easy to drive and although conditions at times were very slippy to say the least i could keep pushing the car without it becoming to unstable,i seemed to land a good setup that made the car feel planted yet still very quick and agile,and for its first run putting the car in the A i was more than happy with.

Also a big thankyou to eric wilcox (CONCEPT RACING) for his help yesterday and i look forward to to getting more track time and better results with the car as next season approaches :thumbsup:

Nice, sounds like you had a blast.

I do too my 1st with it.
It's indoor race, i fell she car really easy too.
I drive in pro stock (10.5T). I don't take the TQ for 3 second :blush: But i won the 3 A final :thumbsup:
I look if i can find some picture or movies of the race and putt them here.

Jasonrcb, what kind of track/surface were you running on?

the track was astro turf,it was nicely frozen with the weather were having here at the minute,and the car felt really good very pleased with its first run out

If you would like there is some picture and movies on this report.

completed mid rat build
 

Just finished my mid build using the stick conversion from tcmodels and a basic mad rat.Some issues with the build on the threading of the chassis using the screws and ripping out the screw hexes so for anyone else i would pre tap the holes in the bottom of the chassis using a m3x.5mm tap first.The dots on the shell didn't match up on the chassis to the mounting pegs but the car went together very well.All in all the total cost of building a stick celled mid rat is £45 for the car,£9.99 for all ballraces including the stearing,$87 for the conversion and postage (£57) total £111.99p.Can't wait to race it (snow go away it's not fun any more):thumbsup:
